Original Arabic
وعن عمرو بن العاص رضي الله عنه قال: إذا دفنتمونى، فأقيموا حول قبري قدر ما تنحر جذور، ويقسم لحمها حت أستأنس بكم، وأعلم ماذا أراجع به رسل ربي" ((رواه مسلم. وقد سبق بطوله)). وقال الشافعي رحمه الله: ويستحب أن يقرأ عنده شيء من القرآن، وإن ختموا القرآن عنده كان حسناً.

"When you have buried me, keep standing near my grave till (for the time it takes to) a camel is slaughtered and its meat is distributed, so that I may feel your nearness and know what to reply to the angels sent by my Rubb." [Muslim].
